PATSY, POLLY and THOMAS.
Wit.: HENRY BRADFORD, SAMUEL SIMMONS
Extrs.: my wife and my son-in-law HARDY MANNEN and my son THOMAS
Does anyone have a copy of the original will or any other estate documents?
Hardy Mannen was marrried to daughter Nancy Lorton.
I am looking for any documentation to support Thomas Lorton’s wife Polly Lorton’s surname was Dickerson.Hardy Mannen and Nancy Lorton named one of their children John Dickerson Mannen, but that is all I have to go on at this time.Hardy Mannen and Nancy Lorton are in Warren County, Kentucky @ 1810.
Are these Lortons related in anyway to the Lortons in Greene County, IL?
